Each month we hold Planning Commission meetings and present to the Board of Island County Commissioners (Board) on topics relevant to Island County’s 2025 Comprehensive Plan Update. Below are our upcoming meetings and engagement opportunities. 

Planning Commission

The next Planning Commission meeting will be on Wednesday, November 5, at 6 pm. The meeting will be held ONLINE only. Long Range Planning will be presenting updates on the discussions with Oak Harbor regarding their Urban Growth Area and housing allocations, and the reassessment of the Countywide Planning Policies. Materials are available in the agenda center.

Board of County Commissioners

Long Range Planning will be meeting with the Board on Wednesday, November 5, to review draft code changes relating to Rural Areas of More Intensive Development (RAIDs or LAMIRDs), and to discuss the recommendations from the Planning Commission on points for forestry under the Public Benefit Rating System (PBRS). Meeting materials will be available in the agenda center later this week.

At the Board’s meeting on November 12, Long Range Planning will review the draft code changes related to Planned Residential Developments (PRDs or Rural Clusters) and will provide an overall comprehensive plan schedule update.
